Dogma is a principle or set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true.[1] It serves as part of the primary basis of an ideology or belief system, and it cannot be changed or discarded without affecting the very system's paradigm, or the ideology itself.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogma


The question therefore is... is your statement that 'you are not a body that has a spirit' authoritative and incontrovertibly true? Is your statement that 'you are a soul' authoritative and incontrovertibly true?

If there is a 'level of consciousness' where that is the case then I'm curious about it. Not that I want to be in that 'level', but I am curious about it and about it's mechanism. But you're right, from where I stand (I wouldn't call it a 'level of consciousness', just a perspective) it sounds like nothing but Dogma.

you'll awaken to the realization that you are not a body that has a spirit.; rather, you are Soul that is encased in a physical body.

grin All these Anti-religion anti-dogma folks that are really just trying to replace one set of dogma with another set of dogma. At least you haven't got to the stage where you're threatening those that don't agree with you ... yet.
